Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend at a grocery store. We haven't seen each other since we broke up a few months ago, and when he introduced me, he called me by the wrong name. We dated for three years. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I ran into an old friend of mine at the store. All was going fine, until she showed me her new fiancé. My now ex-boyfriend. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend at the store, holding hands with his very pregnant girlfriend. They were buying baby supplies. We had a very nasty and painful breakup not even three months ago. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend in town. We broke up a year ago because he "moved" to Florida. FML
Today, I was hanging out with my ex's new girlfriend. I found out he was dating us both at the same time and was comparing between us. That is why he broke up with me two years ago and is still with her ever since. FML
Today, I met my ex's new boyfriend. I was at work, cashiering at the movie theater that they were apparently having their first date at. We broke up less than 24 hours ago. FML
Today, my ex, for whom I still have feelings, introduced me to his new girlfriend. To make things "less awkward," he invited a mutual friend of ours. However, the last time I'd seen this friend, it was a week after my ex and I had broke up, and we hooked up. Awkward doesn't cover it. FML
Today, at my anniversary party, and in front of all our friends, I accidentally called my husband-to-be by my ex-boyfriend's name. FML
Today, my boyfriend of a couple of weeks mixed up my name with his ex-wife's name. After he said it, he looked at me and said, "You knew it was going to happen." FML
Today, I ran into my crush of three years ago. We used to always walk our dogs together. He still remembered my dog's name. He didn't remember mine. FML
Today, I ran into my ex-boyfriend on campus. Upset, I decided to go to McDonald's to eat my painful memories away. While in the drive-thru line, I realized my ex was right in front of me. It looked like I'd followed him all the way from campus. He thinks I'm a stalker now. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Should've said "you must have been the girl he cheated on me with."

Both of those answers are classic. Kudos.

It was probably intentional. For some reason he didn't want his new girlfriend to know your name. Who knows
nivek2120 8
Where does it say he cheated on her?? Since we are in the mood for assumptions maybe she's a *****!

Should've said "who are you?"

Op your ex knew who you were, he just wanted to show he was over you. Happens all the time.
zombicidal 11
it doesn't say anything about him cheating
docscientist 10
Maybe op cheated on him. Or neither of them did! But of ******* course the guy cheated on the girl, right?
EricaCookies 0
No, i think the joke was that she didn't actually get cheated on but was implying that the ex is a cheat. No sexist accusations...
ravingroadkill 11
He was probably just nervous, it must have been a pretty awkward situation for him...

123, Theres a simple formula that applies to relationships these days. guy = omg like the best boyfriend ever; if (relationship == over) { guy = rand(shallow,cheating,scumbag,asshole); } Men are always the assholes when a relationship ends according to modern society.

Just be thankful that someone as petty as that is no longer in your life anymore!

@ - #145 Or, you know, the girl friend is a *****, ****, tramp, selfish bint, trollop, demon, bitch, shallow, bimbo, high maintenance, gold digger, harpy, life sucker, soul stealer, ball crusher... ...shall I continue? It's not JUST men that get the short end of sticks after relationships.

145- for some reason I was unable to read that comment.. Looked like a bunch of parentheses and brackets to me.

145 you suck for writing your comment in some sort of program code.

I'm sorry, I should have dumbed it down for you idiots, I forgot my audience was barely capable of finding letters on a keyboard without assistance let alone understanding a simple script.

Should've been like.. "um, I've seen you somewhere but can't remember where.. Have we met?"
ohSNAPyall 27
Even if you don't know the coding language, the statement makes sense logically (as long as you can figure out contextually that "rand" means "random").

Not society, to the ex and all her friends

Torva_fml 16
Hey, 83... I'd say your comment, and picture are pretty stupid as well,

Hey. Don't hate on the tank catapult. It'll **** you up.
graham11 14
2- seriously? Whatever happened to trying to make a creative comment? "wow"
Benelli_SkM 0
I'm sorry. Maybe you should have ******* been number 2 and come up with a creative one.
graham11 14
194- that's why you must have grace under pressure and must be able to handle situations in a time crunch!

Perhaps he was frazzled...or maybe he's a JERK!
RussianFox 13
Or maybe OP is a cheating bitch since were assuming.
CryMoreFMLs 15
I'm afraid OP, that your ex must suffer from selective short-term memory loss, as he can recognize your face but sadly not the name.
born_hustla 26
True that.
22cute 17
He's just trying to yank your chain, Op. Don't let it bother you.

Maybe he had the jitters or something, everyone makes mistakes.
jpshort 0
Aw. Did he call you another exes name?
flockz 20
and that's when you say "no that was the name of your other girlfriend, remember? the one you cheated on me with?" i'm sure his new girlfriend won't appreciate that.
drooller 9
Nice one :D

Maybe he said his ex was hot and he didn't want his gf to think he dated you?

Totally agree, strangely it Was the First thing I though of.

This would be a great time to get over it. Who cares if he "forgot" your name. Move on, psycho. Get your fava beans and go home.
